Paint your house easily
“The walls and ceilings of your home are” asking “a few coats of paint because they have now just look nice? Do not have enough cash to pay professionals who do not want too many or experience to do it yourself? Give a touch of color to the home is not complicated if you know some simple keys.
The domestic picture is one of the most common tasks in the world of DIY, not only because the state and appearance of the painted surfaces will inevitably deteriorate over the years, but simply because sometimes you want to renew the atmosphere of the home and give it a more today.
The arrival of good weather from spring when temperature increases and the number of hours per day lighting and reduced rainfall, usually one of the best in the year to paint the house, because colors are best appreciated at natural light, the paint dries before and also avoids the risk to surface moisture on the walls.
According to expert interior design and decoration Ribas Silvia Hidalgo, “it does not take a great expert in the field to paint the house and get a good result, comparable to that can offer a professional painter, even if it takes longer to finish the work . What if you need to know is a series of basic ideas so that our work is satisfactory with an effort, errors and minimal complications.
Regardless of the tools and techniques used to paint, and the proper preparation of surfaces to be painted and protect furniture and floors, with respect to which it may be somewhat tolerant if they are not as perfect or professional and desirable, there is a point with which you can not take any chances: the painting itself.
“It is important for matching the paint, because once you choose and will no longer be applied to roll backwards and if the result is not expected will have to live with it for a long time or taking an unpleasant decision: repaint or finally pay a professional painter to do the job, “says Silvia.
According to this expert, to choose the right color should not rely too much on the tones that appear in “letters of samples” of the paint shop, as the piece of color that can be seen in them is very small and can induce mistakes, because it is among others very similar.
“The ideal is to bring some object that has the exact color you’d like to use as a pillow, a cloth or paper,” said Ribas. Anyway, it is desirable to test the color before applying to the entire house. This requires painting a square meter and wait the next day to dry properly and the color is strong.
